ORGANIZATION.

The plan of instruction is so adjusted as to allow any who
choose to omit the study of Latin or Greek, substituting in
their stead Modern Languages, and a more extended Mathe-
matical and Scientific Course. Hence, the students in each
class will be divided into two sections, corresponding to the
two Courses of Study, and distinguished as the Classical and
Scientific Sections.

The Regular Course for all students extends through four
years; at the end of which time those who pass a good exami-
nation in prescribed studies, are admitted to a degree — those
who have pursued the entire Classical Course, to the degree of
Bachelor of Arts, and those who have pursued the Scientific
Course, to that of Bachelor of Sciences.

Young gentlemen desiring to attend the recitations of par-
ticular departments, without becoming candidates for degrees,
are allowed to do so, provided they have the requisite prepara-
tion for the studies of those departments, and become subject
to the laws of the University. This arrangement is designed
to meet the wants of those whose age or pursuits prevent them
from pursuing either of the Regular Courses, but who are de-
sirous of obtaining the liberal culture which the study of a
-portion of the Courses will give them. Special pains are taken
to give such persons the opportunities for instruction which
they require.

ADMISSION.

Candidates for admission to the University are expected to
furnish satisfactory testimonials of character; and if from
other colleges, certificates of regular dismission.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER. 13

No person will be admitted to the Freshman Class who has
not completed his fourteenth year, or to an advanced standing,
without a corresponding advance in age.

Monday and Tuesday before Commencement, and the open-
ing of the following term, are the regular times for examining
candidates. The examinations may take place at other times,
at the discretion of the Faculty.

PREPARATORY STUDIES.

l.-CLASSICAL COURSE.

English, Latin and Greek Grammars, Four Books of Caesar's
Commentaries or Cornelius Nepos, Six Books of Virgil's
iEneid, Cicero's Select Orations, Translating English into Latin,
Greek Reader, Three Books of Xenophon's Anabasis, Geogra-
phy, Arithmetic, and Algebra, as far as Quadratic Equations.

2.-SCIENTIFIC COURSE.

Candidates for the Scientific Course are required to sustain
a thorough examination in Spelling, Defining, Reading,
Writing, Geography, English Grammar, Arithmetic, Algebra
as far as Quadratic Equations, English Composition, History
of the United States, Ancient History and Geography, (equal
to the amount of Taylor's Manual,) and Constitution of the
United States ; and are recommended to pursue the study of
Latin, at least one year, as a preparation for the study of
English and other modern Languages.

Persons who wish to' pursue studies in this city or vicinity,
preparatory to admission to the University, will find ample
facilities for so doing, under the advice and direction of the
Faculty.

GEOLOGICAL AND MINERALOGICAL CABINETS.

A valuable and most important addition to the educational
means of the University has been made, by the purchase
of the Great Cabinets of Geology and Mineralogy, collected
by Mr. Henry A. Ward, now Professor of the Natural Scien-
ces in this Institution. This purchase, at the low price of
$20,000, has been accomplished by special subscription, made
by liberal friends of the University, mainly in the city of
Rochester. These Cabinets, now in process of arrangement,
occupy ten rooms in the third story of Anderson Hall, the
largest of which rooms is 58 by 33 feet. The glass cases in
which they are contained, are nearly 700 feet in length, and
are of such form as to give them the most perfect exhibition.
These cabinets are an encyclopedia of the sciences which they
illustrate. They were collected by Professor Ward during six
years of extensive foreign travel, and during many careful
visits to a large number of the most fruitful American locali-
ties. Having been compiled from the first upon a plan which
contemplates the most complete illustration of every point in
these two departments of inorganic nature, it is believed that
these Cabinets offer opportunities to students in these sciences
which have not hitherto been presented in this country.

The Cabinet of Geology commences with a collection of over
3,000 rocks, arranged in orders and families, in explanation of
the science of Lithology. Every rock species, as recognized
by the latest authors, is contained in this series ; and all points
of interest in Technical or Economical Geology are illustrated
with special prominence.

20 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

strata of Tuscany, the products of extinct volcanoes of Central
France, and the active volcanoes of Italy and Sicily, the Ter-
tiary formations of the Paris Basin, and the mining districts of
Saxony.

The collections of Fossils are from the standard localities in
Europe and America, and represent the animal and vegetable
life which covered the surface of our planet during each one
of the great geological periods. The student here sees the
earliest forms of animal life which teemed upon the land or in
the waters, and can trace the addition of higher forms, as he
passes along the series from the Corals and Shells of the
Silurian period to the gigantic Reptiles of the Oolite and the
Mammals of the Tertiary.

A prominent feature of the Cabinet is that it contains Plaster
Copies, perfect in form and dimension, of all those well known
genera of fossil Quadrapods, the Labyrinthodon, Icthyosaurus,
Plesiosaurus, Pterodactyle, Iguanodon, Megalosaurus, Mosa-
saurus, Zeuglodon, Megatherium, Mastodon, Cavern Bear,
etc., etc.

A fine section of the Geological Cabinet is a series of models,
maps, sections, ideal landscapes, and cuts of fossils, intended to
illustrate the lectures which are given upon these subjects.

The Cabinet of Minerals is equally rich and comprehensive.
It begins with several extensive series of specimens intended to
demonstrate the subjects of Crystallography, and the Physical
Properties of Minerals.

The large systematic collection contains about 5,000 choice
specimens, representing four-fifths of all the mineral species
known. These are arranged according to the classification
adopted in the last edition of Dana's system of Mineralogy,
and are very handsomely mounted and carefully labelled.

These two Cabinets contain, in the aggregate, over 40,000
carefully selected specimens, and have by their equal represcn-
tation of all the the parts of the sciences of Geology and Mine-
ralogy, as well as by their great size and beauty, elicited the
unqualified admiration of men of science of the highest dis-

U N r V E R S 1 'I1 V (> P R 0 C II E S T E R. 21

tineiion who have visited (hem. Many of these gentlemen,

whose opinions would be decisive to all familiar with these
sciences, have pronounced the Geological Cabinet, for the pur-
poses of instruction, without an equal upon the American
Continent.

LIBEAEY.

The Library of the University is open daily at stated times
for consultation, and for the drawing of books. All the stu-
dents have access to the Library on the payment of a small
fee.

BATHBONE LIBEAEY FUND.

Gen. John F. Rathbone, of Albany, has given to the Faculty
of the University the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars, the
annual income of which is to be appropriated in the future to
the increase of the Library.

EHETOEICAL EXEBCISES.

Orations are pronounced before the University, by students
in the third term of the Junior, and the first and second terms
of the Senior year; each student being required to exhibit
twice in each term.

•?•?

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER

The Freslmien and Sophomore Classes have a regular weekly
exercise in Declamation, and Juniors and Sophomores are re.
quired to present original essays twice in each term.

RELIGIOUS EXERCISES.

The public duties of each day are opened at a quarter before
9 o'clock, A. M., with reading of the Scriptures and Prayer, in
the University Chapel. The students are required to attend,
unless specially excused by the Faculty.

RECITATIONS AND LECTURES.

The recitations are heard from 9 to 12 o'clock, A. M., each
class having three daily exercises of one hour. The number
or length of these exercises may be increased at the discretion
the Faculty. On Saturday the classes attend in the Lecture
Room but one hour. Instruction is given in text books, in
connection with frequent Lectures.

MERIT ROLL.

An exact daily record is kept of the attendance, conduct, and
recitations of each student, as well as of the sufficiency and
insufficiency of the excuses rendered for delinquency. Sum-
maries of these records are made for every term and year.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER. 2o

Being- kept in a permanent form, they will determine the stand-
ing of each student at any period of his connection with the
University, and in the end will exhibit a complete history of his
College course for subsequent reference.

MORAL AND RELIGIOLS CULTURE.

It is the aim of the Faculty, in connection with the discipline
of the intellect, to inculcate a pure morality, and the great
truths and duties of Evangelical Christianity. Weekly prayer-
meetings are held by the students.

A Christian Association, composed of students, holds meet-
ings for prayer, and for reports, on subjects connected with re-
ligious and missionary activity.

Parents and guardians are requested to designate places of
worship, at which their sons or wards shall regularly attend on
the Sabbath ; and, also, to entrust the general supervision of
their pecuniary expenditures either to some member of the
Faculty, or to some other responsible person in the city.

In the Greek department there is a weekly recitation, in the
Greek New Testament.

EXAMINATIONS.

1. Of all the classes at the close of the first and second terms,
on the studies of the term.

2. Of the Senior Class, four weeks before commencement.

3. Of the other Classes, the week before commencement, on
the studies of the term.

24 D N I A" E RSITT OF ROCHESTER.

Examinations are conducted by a combination of written and
oral exercises. Tn the Greek and Latin Departments, students
are required to make written translations, in the presence of
the examining officer, of passages not previously read.

PUBLIC EXERCISES.

1. Senior Exhibition in the first term.

2. Prize Declamation of the Sophomore Class, on the Mon-
day evening preceding Commencement.

8. Commencement on the second Wednesday in July.

EXPENSES.

Board can be obtained in private families at rates varying
from $2.50 to $5.00.

Tuition, per term, including incidentals, $520.00

The rules for payment of tuition, established by the Trustees,
require the settlement of all bills at the commencement of each
term ; that students in the partial course pay full tuition, and
that orders for tuition on scholarships be presented as soon as
received. No deduction is made for absence.

A large number of students find profitable employment in
the city, in teaching private pupils and classes, and in various
other occupations; thus enabling themselves to provide, in
considerable part, for the expenses of their education.

Indigent students for the Ministry, regularly approved by
churches, receive assistance from the New York Baptist Union
for [Ministerial Education, and, under certain conditions, free
tuition from the University.

I \ 1 V E R S I T V 0 P 11 <) (' II E S T E It . 25

Other indigent students, of good character, arc occasionally
assisted from funds at the disposal of the President.

Parents and guardians are earnestly requested to exercise a
careful supervision over their sons or wards, and to discrimi-
nate between necessary and unnecessary expenses. Experience
proves that nothing has a more unfavorable influence upon a
student's moral conduct and habits of study, than the unre-
strained use of money.

LITERARY SOCIETY.

The Delphic Society, an organization for Debate and other
Literary exercises, is in successful operation.

PREMIUMS, EXTEA STUDIES, &C.

Premiums are given in the University for Extra Studies,
Essays and Declamations. All premiums are divided at the
discretion of the Committees of Award.

DAVIS PRIZE FITJSTD.

The sum of $1000 has been given to the funds of the Uni-
versity by Hon. Isaac Davis, LL. D., of Worcester, Mass., the
annual income of which, $70, is, by the direction of the donor,
to be expended in purchasing two gold medals of unequal

20 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER

GEOLOGICAL AXD MINERALOGICAL
CABIXETS.

These Cabinets occupy ten roomy in the third"story of An-
derson Hall, the largest of which rooms is 58 by 33 feet. The
glass cases in which they are contained, are nearly 700 feet in
length, and are of such form as to give them the most perfect
exhibition. These Cabinets are an encyclopedia of the sciences
which they illustrate. They were collected by Professor Ward,
during six years of extensive foreign travel, and during many
careful visits to a large number of the most fruitful American
localities. Having been compiled from the first upon a plan
which contemplates the most complete illustration of every
point in these two departments of inorganic nature, it is
believed that these Cabinets offer opportunities to students in
these sciences, which have not hitherto been presented in this
country.

The Cabinet of Geology commences with a collection of over
3,000 rocks, arranged in orders and families, in explanation of
the science of Lithology. Every rock species, as recognized
by the latest authors, is contained in this series • and all points
of interest in Technical or Economical Geology, are illustrated
with special prominence.

Another series of rocks presents those which are to some
extent characteristic of the several geological formations.
Other scries are geographical in their character, and show the
student the mineral composition of sonic typical geclogical
region — as the Plutonic district of the Alps, the Metamorphic
strata of Tuscany, the products of extinct volcanoes of Central
France, and the active volcanoes of Italy and Sicily, the Ter-
tiary formation of the Paris Basin, and the mining districts of
Saxony.

The collections of Fossils are from the standard localities in
Europe and America, and represent the animal and vegetable

i n i v e rsi th or aoca E s T k a. :il

life which covered the surface of our planet during cadi one
of the great geological periods. The student here sees the
earliest forms of animal life which teemed upon the land or iii
the waters, and can trace the addition of higher forms as he
passes along the series, from the Corals and Shells of the
Silurian period to the gigantic Reptiles of the Oolite, and the
Mammals of the Tertiary.

A prominent feature of the Cabinet is that it contains Plaster
Copies, perfect in form and dimension, of all those well known
genera of fossil Quadrupeds, the Labyrinthodon, Icthyosaurus,
Plesiosaurus, Pterodactyle, Iguanodon, Megalosaurus, Mosa-
saurus, Zeuglodon, Megatherium, Mastodon, Cavern Bear,
etc., etc.

A fine section of the Geological Cabinet is a series of models,
maps, sections, ideal landscapes, and cuts of fossils, intended to
illustrate the lectures which are given upon these subjects.

These two Cabinets contain, in the aggregate, over 40,000
carefully selected specimens, and have by their equal represen-
tation of all the parts of the sciences of Geology and Miner-
alogy, as well as by their great size and beauty, elicited the
unqualified admiration of men of science of the highest dis-
tinction who have visited them. Many of these gentlemen,
whose opinions would be decisive to all familiar with these
sciences, have pronounced the Geological Cabinet, for the pur-
poses of instruction, without an equal upon the American
Continent.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

LIBEART.

The Library of the University is open daily, at stated times,

RECITATIONS AND LECTURES.

The recitations are heard from 9 to 12 o'clock, A. M., each
class having three daily exercises of one hour. The number
or length of these exercises may be increased at the discretion
of the Faculty. On Saturday the classes attend in the Lecture
Room but one hour. Instruction is given in text books, in
connection with frequent Lectures.

MERIT ROLL.

An exact daily record is kept of the attendance, conduct ancl
recitations of each student, as well as of the sufficiency and
insufficiency of the excuses rendered for delinquency. Sum-
maries of these records are made for every term and year.
Being kept in a permanent form, they will determine the stand-
ing of each student at any period of his connection with the
University, and in the end will exhibit a complete history of
his College course for subsequent reference.

MORAL AND RELIGIOUS CULTURE.

A Christian Association, composed of students, holds meet-
ings for prayer, and for reports, on subjects connected with
religious and missionary activity.

Parents and guardians are requested to designate places of
worship, at which their sons or wards shall regularly attend on

12 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER

ORGANIZATION

The Regular Course for all students extends through four
years j at the end of which time those who pass a good exami-
nation in prescribed studies, are admitted to a degree — those
who have pursued the entire Classical Course, to the degree of
Bachelor of Arts, and those who have pursued the Scientific
Course, to that of Bachelor of Sciences.

Young gentlemen desiring to attend the recitations of par-
ticular departments, without becoming candidates for degrees,
are allowed to do so, provided they have the requisite prepara-
tion for the studies of those departments, and become subject
to the laws of the University. This arrangement is designed
to meet the wants of those whose age or pursuits prevent them
from pursuing either of the Regular Courses, but who are de-
sirous of obtaining the liberal culture which the study of a
portion of the Courses will give them. Special pains are taken
to give such persons the opportunities for instruction which
they require.

The Classical Course will hereafter include a more extended
course of modern languages under a Professor appointed for
that Department.

ADMISSION

Candidates for admission to the University are expected to
furnish satisfactory testimonials of character; and if from
other colleges, certificates of regular dismission.

UNIVERSITY OP ROCHESTER. L3

No person will be admitted to the Freshman Class who has
not completed his fourteenth year, or to an advanced standing
without a corresponding advance in age.

PREPARATORY STUDIES.

l.-CLASSICAL COURSE.

English, Latin and Greek Grammars, Four Books of Caesar's
Commentaries or Cornelius Nepos, Six Books of Virgil's
iEneid, Cicero's Select Orations, Translating English into
Latin, Greek Reader, Three Books of Xenophon's Anabasis,
Geography, Arithmetic, Algebra, as far as Quadratic Equa-
tions, and the first three Books of Robinson's Geometry, or
their equivalents.

2.-SCIEKTQTC COURSE.

Candidates for the Scientific Course are required to sustain
a thorough examination in Spelling, Defining, Reading,
Writing, Geography, English Grammar, Arithmetic, Algebra
as far as Quadratic Equations, English Composition, History
of the United States, Ancient History and Geography (equal
to the amount of Taylor's Manual), and Constitution of the
United States ; and are recommended to pursue the study of
Latin, at least one year, as a preparation for the study of
English and other modern Languages.

Persons who wish to pursue studies in this city or vicinity,
preparatory to admission to the University, will find ample
facilities for so doing under the advice and direction of the
Faculty.

GEOLOGICAL AND MINERALOGIC AL
CABINETS.

These Cabinets occupy tens rooms in the third story of An-
derson Hall, the largest of which rooms is 58 by 33 feet. The
glass cases in which they are contained, are nearly 700 feet in
length, and are of such form as to give them the most perfect
exhibition. These Cabinets are an encyclopedia of the sciences
which they illustrate. They were collected by Professor Ward,
during six years of extensive foreign travel, and during many
careful visits to a large number of the most fruitful American
localities. Having been compiled from the first upon a plan
which contemplates the most complete illustration of every
point in these two departments of inorganic nature, it is
believed that these Cabinets offer opportunities to students in
these sciences, which have not hitherto been presented in this
country.

Another series of rocks presents those which are to some
extent characteristic of the several geological formations.
Other series are geographical in their character, and show the
student the mineral composition of some typical geological
region — as the Plutonic district of the Alps, the Metamorphic
strata of Tuscany, the products of extinct volcanoes of Central
France, and the active volcanoes of Italy and Sicily, the Ter-
tiary formation of the Paris Basin, and the mining districts of
Saxony.

20 UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

The collections of Fossils are from the standard localities in
Europe and America, and represent the animal and vegetable
life which covered the surface of our planet during each one
of the great geological periods. The student here sees the
earliest forms of animal life which teemed upon the land or in
the waters, and can trace the addition of higher forms as he
passes along the series, from the Corals and Shells of the
Silurian period to the gigantic Reptiles of the Oolite, and the
Mammals of the Tertiary.

A prominent feature of the Cabinet is that it contains Plaster
Copies, perfect in form and dimensions, of all those well known
genera of fossil Quadrupeds, the Labyrinthodon, Icthyosaurus,
Plesiosaurus, Pterodactyle, Iguanodon, Megalosaurus, Mosa-
saurus, Zeuglodon, Megatherium, Mastodon, Cavern Bear,
etc., etc.

A fine section of the Geological Cabinet is a series of models,
maps, sections, ideal landscapes, and cuts of fossils, intended to
illustrate the lectures which are given upon these subjects.

UNIVKHSITY OF ROCHESTER

CHEMICAL LABORATORY.

Important improvements have been recently made in the
facilities for the instruction of under-graduates in general
chemistry. An additional room has also been provided and
furnished with the requisite apparatus for the use of those
who may wish to pursue a more extended course of theoretical
and practical chemistry by conducting their own experiments
and investigations.

Special students will be admitted to the Laboratory for
instruction in the theory and practice of chemical analysis,
qualitative and quantitative, the applications of chemistry to
the mechanic arts, the assay of ores, etc.

LIBRARY.

The Library of the University is open daily, at stated times,
for consultation, and for the drawing of books. All the stu-
dents have access to the Library, on the payment of a small
fee.

RATHBOKR LIBRARY FUND.

Gen. John F. Rathbone, of Albany, has given to the Univer-
sity, the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars, the annual income
of which is to be appropriated to the increase of the Library.

UNIVERSITY OF ROCHESTER.

RHETORICAL EXERCISES.

Orations are pronounced before the University, by students
in the third term of the Junior, and the first and second terms
of the Senior year. — each student being required to exhibit
twice in each term.

The Freshmen and Sophomore Classes have a regular weekly
exercise in Declamation, and Juniors and Sophomores are
required to present original essays twice in each term.

RELIGIOUS EXERCISES.

RECITATIOXS AND LECTURES.

The recitations are heard from 9 to 12 o'clock, A. M., each
class having three daily exercises of one hour. The number
or length of these exercises may be increased at the discretion
of the Faculty. On Saturday the classes attend in the Lecture
Room but one hour. Instruction is given in text books, in
connection with frequent Lectures.

I' N I V B its IT v o r u. or II K ST K It.

MERIT ROLL.

An exact daily record is kept of the attendance, conduct and
recitations of each student, as well as of the sufficiency and
iusufficiency of the excuses rendered for delinquency. Sum-
maries of these records are made for every term and year.
Being kept in a permanent form, they will determine the stand-
ing of each student at any period of his connection with the
University, and in the end will exhibit a complete history of
his College course for subsequent reference.

MORAL JlND RELIGIOUS CULTURE.

A Christian Association, composed of students, holds meet-
ings for prayer, and for reports on subjects connected with
religious and missionary activity.

Parents and guardians are requested to designate places of
worship, at which their sons or wards shall regularly attend on
the Sabbath; and, also, to entrust the general supervision of
their pecuniary expenditures either to some member of the
Faculty, or to some other responsible person in the city.

In the Greek Department there is a weekly recitation in the
Greek New Testament.
